The narrative explores the tumultuous history of the Maxwell Land Grant, a significant parcel of land in New Mexico and Colorado, from its origins in Spanish colonial times to the twentieth century. F. Stanley, a prolific author and historian, recounts dramatic events, including violent conflicts and notable figures like Clay Allison. His anecdotal style, while criticized for its scholarship, draws from diverse sources, making the account both engaging and informative. The book also touches on ghost towns, railroads, and the local Indigenous populations, reflecting Stanley's deep connection to the Southwest.
